john fetterman started embracing the challenges that were confronting him. f the most powerful advertisements i've ever seen, political ads i've ever seen, came from the fetterman camp. because we always see these politicians in the coat and tie, kind of like this, standing in front of a labor audience or standing in front of an audience in a rural town in post industrial pennsylvania or michigan or wisconsin. they don't relate. but you look at fetterman. you looked at that audience in some of the ads that he was talking to, talking about his struggle, and you thought, just as he said, my god, he's one of us. that's what the crowd had to be thinking. now, he continues his journey, a painful journey, and i suspect most of his constituents will have nothing but praise and also thanks for him doing this publicly. >> well, you know, i think doing this publicly was important on a number of levels. number one, you're destigmatizing receiving treatment. number two, you're also being transparent that something is going on. that's important for politicians, as well. t

jessica dean has this story. >> reporter: senator john fetterman the newest democratic senator from pennsylvania has checked himself into walter reed medical center for treatment for clinical depression. you will remember that fetterman suffered a stroke in may when he was running for the nomination for that senate seat that kept him in the hospital for over nine days. and he had a long recovery while he was also on the campaign trail. he then checked himself into the hospital recently just in the last several days when he started feeling lightheaded, but good news there is that they saw no new signs of a new stroke. but again, we had seen him here on capitol hill, he had been here voting and attending meetings and hearings, but getting this notification earlier today, we also heard from his wife who commended him for getting help and asking for privacy while they focus on their kids and making sure that her husband gets the treatment he needs. it is worth noting this is not mental health that is typically discussed by sitting senators so he is breaking precedent by talking about this out in the

. >>> godspeed john fetterman. i'm michael smerconish in philadelphia. you might remember that i was critical of pennsylvania's lieutenant governor during his campaign for the u.s. senate. i noted here and on my siriusxm radio program that he was not timely in notifying the public about his stroke. nor about his cardiomyopathy and need for a pacemaker and he was refusing to debate his opponent in an effort to run out the clock by not agreeing to a debate until many pennsylvanians had already voted. i defended an nbc reporter who was criticized for reporting that fetterman had trouble understanding her small talk before the interview. i thought the coverage was being determined by empathy alone, not objectivity when the facts demanded both. now comes the news from the junior senator admitted himself to walter read on wednesday night for treatment of clinical depression. his office released a statement saying while john was experienced depression on and off throughout his life, it only became severe in rekren weeks, he's receiving treatment on a voluntary

so it is interesting watching john fetterman in the halls of congress.able to talk to him. in a very social job where democrats have lunch together several times a week, not being able to engage i'm sure is very, very difficult. a senior aide said at times it was difficult to differentiate the stroke conditions and the depression conditions. >> that is fascinating. such a good point. take a look at the poll numbers. things have changed so much in this country. 87% of americans say the mental health disorder is not to be ashamed of. there's political downsides to the bullying frankly is how i will put it. partly because a lot of americans recognize this something that lot of people deal with and congress should, too. >> it is true. americans believe it is not just a problem but a crisis and that the opioid crisis, the tiaeen mental health crisis is enormous. with the bipartisan support of fetterman is an acknowledgement that he deserves the empathy and the voters deserve transparency. voters deserve to know the information. >> this is also just to switch
